14 quux => { data_type => 'integer' },
15 quux_plus_one => { data_type => 'integer',
16 dynamic_default_on_create => \&quux_plus_one_default,
17 dynamic_default_on_update => 'quux_plus_one_default', },

32 Now, any update or create actions will set the specified columns to the
33 value returned by the callback you specified as a method name or code
34 reference.
35
37 Automatically set and update fields with values calculated at runtime.

43 dynamic_default_on_create => 'method_name'
44
45 When inserting a new row all columns with the
46 "dynamic_default_on_create" option will be set to the return value of
47 the specified callback unless the columns value has been explicitly
48 set. The callback, that'll be invoked with the row object as its only
49 argument, may be a code reference or a method name.

51 dynamic_default_on_update
52 dynamic_default_on_update => sub { ... }
53
54 dynamic_default_on_update => 'method_name'
55
56 When updating a row all columns with the "dynamic_default_on_update"
57 option will be set to the return value of the specified callback unless
58 the columns value has been explicitly set.
59
60 Columns will only be altered if other dirty columns exist. See
61 "always_update" on how to change this.
62
63 always_update
64 always_update => 1
65
66 When setting "always_update" to 1 "dynamic_default_on_update" callbacks
67 will always be invoked, even if no other columns are dirty.
